Comfort and Efficiency in One System
Comfort™ 13 Packaged
Air Conditioner System
TM
Puron refrigerant is environmentally
sound and won't deplete the ozone
layer. Carrier introduced Puron
refrigerant a full six years
ahead of the
competition, paving the
way for the future. The
Clean Air Act of 1990
prohibits the production of
HCFC-based air conditioners and
heat pumps by 2010, and bans Freon®-
22* production by 2020. As Freon®
production declines, its cost may
increase. Freon®-12 in the automotive
industry increased by a whopping 800%
in a short seven years! Ensure your
cooling costs by investing in systems
with Puron refrigerant – the
environmentally sound, efficient
and dependable refrigerant
designed for the future. The
Carrier® Comfort™ 13 packaged
air conditioner system meets the
requirements of the Clean Air Act while
providing excellent energy efficiency,
reliability and proven performance.
Puron® Refrigerant
Efficiency
l Seasonal Energy
Efficiency Ratio or
SEER is like gas mileage.
The higher the miles
per gallon rating, the
more efficient the
automobile or system
is. The Comfort 13 has
a 13.0 SEER rating.
l While higher efficiency
systems may cost more
initially, they pay for
themselves in utility cost
savings over their lifetime.
Greater Operational
Efficiency
For every $100 you spend
using a 10.0 SEER packaged
system, a 13.0 SEER system
should cost about $76. Actual
savings will depend on the
efficiency of your current
system compared to the
efficiency of a new system.

lot of background noise. The Comfort 13 packaged air conditioner has sound ratings as
